With the weather the way it's been lately, I'm sure I'm not the only one in need of a bit of a fillip and if we can't enjoy an Indian Summer then at least we can be inspired by the interiors extravaganza we're about to experience around the Capital, in terms of the London Design Fair in the East End, 100% Design at Olympia (www.londondesignfair.co.uk) and Decorex International (www.decorex.com) over at Syon Park.

I've been really excited by some of the press releases and images I've been sent over recent weeks, giving me a taster of what will be on display and what the assembled experts will be talking to us about. I can't wait to see everything first hand! Hope to see you there...
